Unconditioning: Discovering the Voice Within

Episode 124. Christopher Quigley: Transformation of Dangerous Spaces, The Alchemia of Art & Societal Programming

Christopher W. Quigley, a Nova Scotia–based artist, designer, and stroke survivor who has transformed personal adversity into a powerful national mission. He’s the founder and Executive Director and Creative Director of ALCHEMIA Art Workshop, a nonprofit arts organization rooted in the belief that public art can spark real social change. His latest project, Transformation of Dangerous Spaces, is a cross-Canada installation that reimagines the hidden places where gender-based violence often begins, bathroom stalls, locker rooms, the ignored corners of public life. Through sound, light, and visceral design, Christopher invites Canadian men to reflect on consent, accountability, and the spaces we take for granted. It’s art, but not just gallery art. It’s a call to action. And it’s as Canadian as it is urgent.
